Publisher's Synopsis
Our journey in this life is akin to the growth of a flower. Imagine sprouting from a seed as you're rooted there above the hickory-stained earth. The petals are just barely starting to unfold and before we know it, we're surviving on water and warmth. In the seasons of our lives, we tend to wilt with sadness, blossom with hope, and bloom with love. "Laughing with my Hair Up" is a collection of poems centered around loss, emotional abuse, and the reflection of life's cruelties. Its chapters, like our journeys, mirror a flower's existence. We are one with the earth, and we are built to withstand the wind and rain.
